Customers report mixed experiences with North East Insulation Services Ltd. Many reviewers praise the work as clean and tidy, with several mentioning that staff were polite, friendly and professional, and that they explained the work as it went on. Several reviewers describe loft insulation, cavity wall insulation, boiler work and window vents being completed to their satisfaction, and some name individual staff positively. But others report serious problems: missed or rearranged appointments with no contact, damaged radiators and boilers with no follow-up, gaps in insulation, and installation faults. One reviewer describes a worker littering and blocking a shared passage, and another reports rudeness and mess at a neighbouring job.
Didn’t complete work said they would return but never have so disappointing
We've just had some work done. Two guys came out and were absolutely spot on Great workmanship, tidy and polite. Top marks
Little tramp pulled into our estate because he hit something prior, so was checking the van. Once checked, chucked a can out the window and drove over it. See photo
Fabulous service. I called Richard on Monday for a quote to top up my loft insulation. It was fitted on Thursday. The house was left spotless. Thanks so much Richard and team 😀
Fantastic customer service until it's been fitted! Don't reply to emails! Fitted hive hub between pipes under boiler( clearly states in instruction to not install within a meter of boiler or near metal pipes) so hive doesn't work due to no signal! So I have to go into garage to turn on or off. Not ideal for someone disabled. They don't brother replying to emails so have no intention of fixing the problem!
Unfortunately they damaged a radiator and left it leaking for months since May. Some contact to sort it out but now they have gone quiet and left me with a radiator in my sitting room that won't work for the winter. Other work was good but seriously not worth the risk of damage to my property.
Appalling I am writing this review to highlight some issues I faced when contacting this company. I was at first excited for the first appointment where a technician inspects the property to see what you could be eligible for. It can take up to 1.5 hours and I was given a 4 hour time slot. I booked the day off, and he didn’t show up. So I called again to book in a couple weeks later when I was free, booked it in and again- took time off and he didn’t show. No correspondence throughout all of this. I have just got off the phone with a member of the team where I was informed these appointments were cancelled due to my council not offering the FLEX scheme. Now I completely understand this is out of NEIS’ control however I would’ve appreciated at minimum a text informing me this was cancelled. I asked to put in a complaint so further training can be given on informing clients of cancellations but i was told ‘no, what would you gain anyway’. Appalling.
Brilliant company , friendly,efficient in all work carried out new boiler, insulation and window vents fitted, left all clean and tidy,special shout out to Alistair who kept us informed at all stages of the job, such an asset to the company.
Insulated my elderly parents loft and they missed big gaps and it was a shoddy job. They also damaged their boiler and denied it at a cost of £300 which my parents had to pay. I definitely wouldn't recommend them.
Had my loft insulation, windows gaps, extractor fan, radiator valves done. Plumbers were very good, neat clean job, good work with roof insulation. I was asking for a hole in my wall in the kitchen fan to be put above the cooker, the guy did it on 50cm away :( ( maybe its a building regulations). Had to contact to arrange radiator valves installation, due to no show, but 2 days later after call, job is done by someone else from company. I'm happy with the work overall.
The guys seem decent enough but professionalism leaves a lot to be desired. Fitted a new heating system, etc. but broke one of my smoke alarms AND a radiator bleed screw. They would never admit to it but it's clearly something I don't go about my house doing myself. Being unable to bleed a radiator means there is now a permanent air lock in the system, makes it all pretty useless.
Had loft insulation done by north east insulations Gavin Thompson did a great job in the loft and connor did the ventilation very clean a tidy great pair of lads good work from them both.
I am due to have a boiler fitted Monday. I have been dealing with North East Insulations for quite a few weeks now. They have been wonderful, helpful and professional. However there is one person in particular who I must mention and that is Jessica. She has been absolutely fantastic and was just the right person I needed at a difficult time. In this crazy world it is so refreshing to find someone who really cares. Thank you so much to you all but especially to Jessica.
Just had some work done at my property in Berwick upon Tweed (new boiler, attic lagging, window vents and radiator valves). Fantastic job completed by Connor, Layton, Gavin, Richard, Cameron and Henry. They even clean up after themselves and took away all of their rubbish. Great job, thanks again.
Disappointing with the lack of communication to not even show up or call. We had an appointment with yourselves which had been rearranged by yourselves (twice). My wife, took the day off to wait in for your assessor as you reassured us via email and phonecall that they would be coming. 3 hours later still nothing, I rang your office of which a gentlemen answered to then contact the assessor. The assessor was "running behind" which was also the same reason they gave for the rearranging of appointments. The common courtesy would have been to call us to atleast let us know that you couldn't be bothered to attend anymore but again we were left pondering. Genuinally disappointed as we had high hopes for your company.
Friendly advice and guidance from the start. Agreed a start date and loads of people turned up on time. I had cavity wall insulation and loft insulation. It was all completed efficiently and they all hoovered up and tidied everything away. Would definitely recommend this firm.
Had window vents, loft insulation and ventilation unit fitted by these guys today.... ( Dave, Gavin and Connor respectively). Did a great job. Very polite and proffessional.....( a rareity these days.)..I would recommend 100%
Henry fitted window vents, Rob radiator valves, Connor fitted extractor fan and Gavin and Lee cavity wall insulation, brilliant job! Clean, tidy, friendly and an efficient job done. Thank you
Had new boiler and insulation installed by a great set of lads. All were professional and polite. Special recognition to Henry, Connor and Robbie for their excellent work today 👏
A fab bunch, brilliant work and kept everything clean throughout. They made sure that I was informed of what they were doing, how they were going to do it and why. Special mention to Henry, brilliant job fella.
Henry came to fit air vents to windows, this was done with the minimum of fuss and upheaval, he was informative and friendly and cleaned up when the work was finished, I was highly satisfied with the work In fact all the guys working at our home were brilliant and very professional at all times
Connor and Heney did a amazing job even fixed my window which had not worked properly for years . Thanks guys great job.
Good bunch of lads, expert in their individual field. Job done

Excellent speedy work carried out by professionals. New boiler installed, smart valves on radiators. Cavity wall insulation completed, awaiting loft insulation. P.I.V Unit installed. Many thanks to Henry for fixing bedroom window and fitting trickle vents on windows
Conner was extremely helpful and explained everything we needed to know about the new thermostat. He was really professional and cleaned the work area after he had finished. . We couldn’t ask for anything else.

First class , excellent service Henry very polite and professional well all the lads where .Respected the property and cleaned up after themselves.Highly recommend.
I have had someone attend to fit trickle vents on my windows last week and then two further people to install cavity wall insulation and loft insulation yesterday. All 3 were very professional, polite and friendly. They answered all questions I had and were tidy and respectful in my house. I would recommend this company to anyone.
All work carried out no problems, clean and tidy group of worker's.
Fantastic service from start to finish, would highly recommend. From the first call the staff were helpful and informative. The installation teams were polite and professional with no mess which is a bonus. Thank you Team x
Terrible company. Working at our neighbours. Rude, messy, dropping cigarette ends everywhere. Filled the shared passage with stuff so we couldn’t access our property without climbing over stuff. Working in the street. Our disabled son was housebound while they were here. Absolute disgrace
Would not recommend. Poor communication. Didn’t turn up at agreed time. When I called 30 minutes after agreed time they said the surveyor was on his way and that they would call me back. No-one called back. When I called back 50 minutes after agreed time they told me the date they had in their diary was for the next day. Surely they could have said this when I called initially?
Came to do cavity wall insulation trickle vents smart controls and kitchen and bathroom vents. Guy who tried to fit the smart controls could not get them to work so just left the old one in place and the lads that did the cavity wall insulation made a mess of the bricks that where taken out and there was a noise from kitchen fan when I investigated the vent pipe was 6 foot long squeezed into the space between the cavities
Absolutely amazing team from start to finish, very friendly, polite, informative, and did a great job, I couldn't be happier. A special thank you to Henry who went above and beyond with helping me with my windows. Thank you all.
Henry fitted window vents today was very nice gent and left no mess. Fingers crossed I will now have no condensation.
The whole team were professional, polite, friendly and efficient. The lads did a great job of insulating the loft, installing the new boiler, bleeding all radiators and fitting new valves, installing an extract fan in the kitchen and neat trickle vents on the windows. We were really happy with them and highly recommend this company. Top marks!
Top service! Cheers!
I recently had the pleasure of working with North East Insulation Services Ltd, and I must say, the experience exceeded all expectations. From the moment they contacted me, their staff exhibited a level of friendliness and efficiency that set them apart. The workmen who came to my home were not only experts in their field but also the epitome of professionalism. Their respectfulness and courtesy were truly commendable, making the entire process a breeze. I've had various contractors work in my home over the years, but North East Insulation's team stood out as the cleanest and most organised. Every step of the way, they demonstrated a meticulous attention to detail, leaving no mess behind. It's not every day that you find a company whose employees take such pride in their work. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of any of their services. Their exceptional staff not only gets the job done efficiently but also makes the entire experience pleasant. Kudos to North East Insulation for setting the bar high in terms of both professionalism and craftsmanship!
